Title: Wire nail
IPC: F16B15/00
Filed: 1990-03-24
Abstract: A wire nail (10) having a shank (12), a head (14) formed on 
one end of the shank, and a point (16) formed on the other 
end. The point has a penetrating portion, a wedging 
portion, and a transitional portion. The wedging 
portion defines four straight edges, each being 
inclined at an acute angle relative to an axis 
defined by the shank. The transitional portion 
defines four straight edges, each meeting a different 
one of said edges defined by the wedging portion, and 
each being inclined at a lesser angle relative to the 
same axis. The wedging portion has a plurality of 
convex surfaces, each conforming generally to a 
section of a circular cylinder. The transitional 
portion has a plurality of convex surfaces, each 
conforming generally to a section of a circular 
cylinder. A cutting tip is formed as a thin rib 
extended across the penetrating portion. A pair of 
thin cutting ribs extended from the cutting tip are 
formed along the wedging and transitional portions.

Title: Process for adapting the regulation speed of the governor of the injection pump of an air compressing combustion engine driving a vehicle to the running resistances exerted on the vehicle
IPC: B60K31/00
Filed: 1990-06-26
Abstract: A process for adapting the regulation speed of the governor of the injection pump of an internal-combustion engine driving a vehicle to the running resistances exerted on the vehicle is described in which the final cut-off characteristic is shifted towards higher internal combustion engine speeds as the running resistance exerted on the vehicle increases. In order not to have to match the actual final cut-off speed to the actual transmission ratio, it is proposed to first determine a reference running resistance corresponding to the vehicle's conditions of use, and with the aid of this to determine that ratio (reference ratio) which, on the basis of the reference running resistance after turning of the internal combustion engine up to the maximum admissible speed, still gives a connection speed after a predetermined period in the next highest transmission stage which is in the maximum torque range of the internal combustion engine. The actual final cut-off speed is ultimately determined as a function of this reference ratio and the actual running resistances. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for sorting particles with a moving catcher tube
IPC: G01N33/49
Filed: 1990-08-02
Abstract: A sorter with a body member passageway has analysis, pre-analysis and post analysis portions for particles. An elongate catcher tube carried on the body member, and mounted with its axis to be selectively aligned with the analysis portion for intermittently receiving analyzed particles. An operator receives a signal from the analysis portion relative to one or more particle characteristics and selectively aligns the catcher tube in fluid communication with the analysis portion. The signal is an electrical pulse of strength and timing sufficient to cause a driver mounted to the body member and associated with the catcher tube to align the catcher for sorting particles. A resilient support attaches the catcher tube to the body member and provides a pivot for the catcher tube. A method for sorting includes generating a signal representative of one or more characteristics of the particles and applying the signal to a driver to change the position of the catcher tube. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for treating residues from a waste incineration plant and waste incineration plant for carrying out said method
Inventor: SCHNEIDER DIETMAR DR
IPC: C03B5/04
Filed: 1992-03-21
Abstract: The invention relates to the treatment of residues, such as grate ash, boiler ash and flydust from a waste incineration plant. It is known to collect the residues and to melt them in a melting furnace. In this case, however, metals and metal compounds remain in the slag produced, so that the re-utilisability of the latter is restricted. The invention is intended to improve the re-utilisability of the slag. A melt enriched in metals is additionally tapped from the melting furnace. A completely glassy slag which can be used, for example, in road construction is thus formed from the remainder of the melt. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0557595-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01N33/537
Filed: 1992-12-01
Abstract: An improved assay of target components in a sample utilizes specific gravity-altering particles which are attached to the target components by specific antibodies. The attached specific gravity-altering particles are preferably liposomes which will buoy or sink the targets to a common level in the specimen sample when the latter has been centrifuged in a transparent tube. The liposomes can provide an accentuated and more pronounced indication of the presence of the targets in the sample due to their ability to contain many multiples of fluorescent or non-fluorescent dye molecules with minimal steric interference with the attached antibodies' binding ability. <IMAGE>

Title: Mould closing unit for a plastic injection moulding machine.
Inventor: HEHL KARL
IPC: B29C45/17
Filed: 1994-04-06
Abstract: In the case of a toggle-lever mechanism (Y), on which the drive unit is held movably, an electromechanical drive is used, which converts a rotational movement into a linear movement of a drive element for the toggle lever. The length (h) of the lever (43) and the length (1) of the drive element, designed as an impression operating rack, is smaller here than the distance (e) from the contact surface up to articulation points (35, 36). Alternatively, a hollow-shaft motor may be provided as the drive device. As a result, both the linear drive and the mould closing unit can be made of a shorter and more compact design. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A print head having an ink reservoir (66) therein
is made by forming, in a one-shot plastic injection
molding step, a rigid monolithic frame (50) comprising
high melt temperature material having an opening (56)
therein extending from a first side (58) to a second

second bonding surfaces, respectively. The adhesive
material may be a hot melt adhesive or dry adhesive
films pre-formed to the shape of the bonding surfaces.
By securing the flexible films to the bonding surfaces
adhesively, rather than by heat staking, it is not
necessary to form the frame of different materials
during two separate molding steps.
